Music reviews of Legendary Richard Tauber
Music Review: Well re-mastered collection of historical recordings
Rating: 5 Stars
This 2 CD set gives a rather complete overview of Richard Tauber's recordings for voice and orchestra made between 1919 and 1946. I assume that most listeners will be attracted to only one of the two CDs, as the musical material contained in the discs aims at different audiences. Fans of opera, like myself, who value Tauber as one of the greatest lyrical tenors of the last century, will enjoy his legendary renditions of Mozart arias like "Il mio tesoro" (Don Giovanni) or "Dies Bildnis ist bezaubernd sch?n" (Die Zauberfl?te) on CD 1. As a lyrical tenor Tauber to this day has been rivalled in the German-speaking world only by Fritz Wunderlich. Those listeners, on the other hand, who like Tauber for his interpretations of Leh?r operetta and popular evergreens like "Dein ist mein ganzes Herz" or "Ich k?sse Ihre Hand, Madame" will be more than happy with CD 2.
Without intending to offend anybody's musical preferences, I still feel that waltzing along in Viennese dialect was not what Tauber's musical talent and mastery of voice were actually asking for. I, therefore, regret that in his later years he increasingly moved away from singing "grand opera" towards performances of lighter music.
Keeping in mind that the latest recordings of the present set were made in 1946 (two years before Tauber's premature death from lung cancer), nobody should expect high-fidelity stereo sound. However, all songs were carefully re-mastered, making the most of the original material, e.g. reducing background noise to a minimum and lifting Tauber's voice to the centre (sometimes making the orchestra barely audible). For all fans of the great Austrian tenor - whatever their musical orientations may be - this 2 CD set is a must.
